The Fauna of the Exe Estuary

In continuation of the scheme commenced last year for making a detailed survey of the marine fauna in the estuaries on the Devon and Cornish coasts, an examination has been undertaken during the present summer (1901) of the Exe estuary. For this purpose the floating laboratory bot Dawn, which has been generously placed at our disposal and maintained by Mr. J. W. Woodall, was towed to Exmouth and moored in the dock there, where she remained from July to September.
